One thing people keep saying is “he didn’t dominate by as large a margin as Gretzky”

Djok has 78 more weeks at number 1 than anyone else in history, with that number clearly growing…..That number would be over 120 weeks more already if he wasn’t banned for the vax also

That's because he hasn't. In fact, if you're looking for the most dominant stretch in any tennis player's career, either Borg or Federer makes the best case. Did you know that from 2004-2007, Roger Federer won an astounding 11 out of 16 Grand Slam tournaments? Did you know that Bjorn Borg won 15 majors by the time he was 25 years old? Djokovic has never had a run as dominant as those and probably never will. I mean, Djok only has a combined record of 57-52 against Federer (27-23) and Rafa (30-29), so it isn't like he outright dominated either of his most prolific peers.

Wayne Gretzky won the MVP for EIGHT straight years and it was apparent early in on his career that he was easily the best hockey player in history. Djok can't say that second part.
